How do I make my GLC300 air conditioning colder?

Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Why do I get hot air from my GLC300 A/C?

Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.

What causes A/C system leaks?

A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your GLC300's A/C system.

Does running the A/C in my GLC300 use gasoline?

While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your GLC300.

Why does the A/C in my GLC300 smell like vinegar?

It’s easy for moisture to accumulate in your car’s air conditioning system, which can cause microorganisms like bacteria to grow. In turn, this bacteria growth can cause the A/C in your GLC300 to produce a vinegary odor.

What is causing my GLC300’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion?

There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your GLC300 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

A/C Repair Service for Your Mercedes-Benz GLC300

We know Mercedes-Benz vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC300 A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Mercedes-Benz GLC300

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC300 A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Mercedes-Benz GLC300 A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

A/C Recharge for Mercedes-Benz GLC300

Let's say we repair your 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC300 A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll use Mercedes-Benz’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re all set. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC300 A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mercedes-Benz GLC300 A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Mercedes-Benz GLC300 A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Typical A/C problems also include weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC300? That could be the result of a dirty cabin air filter (an easy fix!) or a moldy evaporator case. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your GLC300 — without all the sweat puddles!
